The periderm provides a protective barrier in many seed plant species. development of the suberized phellem, which forms outermost layer this important tissue, has become trait interest for enhancing both resilience to stresses and plant-mediated CO
ABSTRACT Temperature is one of the most impactful environmental factors to which plants adjust their growth and development. Although regulation temperature signaling has been extensively investigated for aerial part plants, much less known understood about how roots sense modulate in response fluctuating temperatures. Here, we found that shoot root responses high ambient are coordinated during early seedling development Arabidopsis. A module includes HY5, phytochromes PIFs exerts a central...
Image segmentation is commonly used to estimate the location and shape of plants their external structures. Segmentation masks are then localize landmarks interest compute other geometric features that correspond plant’s phenotype. Despite its prevalence, segmentation-based approaches laborious (requiring extensive annotation train) error-prone (derived sensitive instance mask integrity). Here, we present a segmentation-free approach leverages deep learning-based landmark detection grouping,...
The therapeutic effects of hydroxysafflor yellow A (HSYA), extracted from Carthamus tinctorius. L, on focal cerebral ischemic injury in rats and its related mechanisms have been investigated. Focal ischemia were made by inserting a monofilament suture into internal carotid artery to block the origin middle administrated HSYA via sublingular vein injection doses 1.5, 3.0, 6.0 mg kg(-1) at 30 min after onset ischemia, comparison with potency nimodipine dose 0.2 kg(-1). Then, 24 h later,...
Chinese flowering cabbage is prone to senescence and yellowing after harvest, leading a huge postharvest loss. Nitric oxide (NO) multifunctional plant growth regulator, but the effect of preharvest application NO on storage quality remains unclear. Preharvest 50 mg L-1 sodium nitroprusside (SNP, donor) roots obviously reduced leaf in during storage. Proteomic analysis reveals 198 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) SNP-treated plants compared control. The main DEPs were significantly...
Accessible chromatin regions (ACRs) are tightly associated with gene expressions in the genome. Conserved non-coding cis-regulatory elements, such as transcription factor binding motifs, usually found ACRs, indicating an essential regulatory role of ACRs plant genome architecture. However, there have been few studies on soybean especially those focusing specific tissues. Hence, this study, convenient ATAC-seq, we identified six tissues, including root, leaf bud, flower, flower developing...
The cytokinin 6-benzyladenine (6-BA) is widely used to regulate the growth of horticultural crops. However, it not clear how postharvest treatment with 6-BA at various concentrations affects quality Chinese flowering cabbage. In this study, harvested cabbage was foliar sprayed solution 5, 10, 20, 40, and 80 mg·L-1. All treatments protected during storage, 20 40 mg·L-1 showed most obvious effect. Treatment reduced leaf yellowing degree weight loss rate; maintained high chlorophyll a b...
In our previous study, a series of novel pyrazoloquinazolines were synthesized. Pyrazoloquinazoline 5a showed high insecticidal activity against the diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella) and no cross-resistance to fipronil. Patch clamp electrophysiology performed on P. xylostella pupae brains two-electrode voltage Xenopus Laevis oocytes indicated that might act ionotropic γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor (GABAR) glutamate-gated chloride channel (GluCl). Moreover, 5a's potency PxGluCl was...
The chemical composition and hardness of bovine bone, porcine chicken rabbit bone were compared, as well the influence nanoprocessing on physicochemical characteristics these powders. A series nanofabrication processes led to an increase in minerals loss protein fat. softened was still largest, whereas bones relatively soft. There no significant differences functional groups between nanoscale Overall, nanomachining significantly reduced homogenized particle size improved color release rate...
Abstract Root system architecture (RSA) describes the shape and arrangement of a plant’s roots in soil including angle, rate growth, type individual roots, which facilitates uptake nutrients water. In crop improvement efforts, RSA has been less well studied due to technical challenges associated with phenotyping as focus on above-ground traits such yield. We developed gel-based root called RADICYL (Root Architecture 3D Cylinder), is non-invasive, high-throughput approach that enabled us...
Torenia fournieri (T. fournieri) is one of the most widely used horticultural flowers and considered a potential model plant for genetic investigation ornamental traits. In this study, we optimized an efficient protocol high efficiency preparation transformation T. protoplast. The rate reached ~75% when 35S:GFP construct was transformation. Using system, characterized subcellular localization several TEOSINTE BRANCHED1/CYCLOIDEA/PROLIFERATING CELL FACTOR (TCP) transcription factors (TFs),...
Carbon ion beam irradiation (CIBI) is a highly efficient mutagenesis for generating mutations that can be used to expand germplasm resources and create superior new germplasm. The study investigated the effects of different doses CIBI (50 Gy, 100 150 200 Gy 300 Gy) on seed germination seedling survival, morphological physiological traits an elite centipedegrass cultivar Ganbei. results showed greater than 50 cause inhibition germination, semi-lethal dose (LD50) around 90 treated seeds A...
The Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) mainly depends on lipids and carbohydrates to meet the energy requirements for its growth rapid ovarian development during exogenous vitellogenesis. Therefore, this study aimed explore effects of dietary icariin supplement hepatopancreas' glycolipid metabolism vital stage. Biochemical analysis revealed apparent differential key indicators involving metabolism. functional mechanisms were systematically investigated using transcriptomic metabolomic...
